Installing modern electrical outlets in your home is one of the best things you can do to increase safety and functionality. Mr. Electric of Sandy performs electrical outlet installation services in Sandy, UT. Whether you need to add additional outlets or upgrade your current ones, we are the team for you. Outlets that often trip or spark when plugging in may pose a safety risk. Importantly, any two-pronged sockets need replacement with safer three-pronged, grounded sockets.

Choosing the Best Outlets for Your Home
We offer multiple types of outlets to increase your home’s efficiency, safety, and functionality. While some outlets come with cutting-edge extras, others boast of advanced safety mechanisms. The most common types of outlets we install include:
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) Outlets
GFCI outlets are required in all areas of your home prone to moisture. A GFCI socket continuously monitors for current abnormalities and disconnects power before a shock can happen.
Arc Fault Current Interrupter (AFCI) Outlets
AFCIs resemble GFCIs with their “Reset” and “Test” buttons. The role of an AFCI is to identify electrical arcs, often from exposed wiring, and break the circuit before a fire can ignite.
Smart Outlets
Smart outlets can sync with other smart devices in your house, such as security systems or doorbell cameras. Some also help control the electrical consumption of devices when not in use.
Switched Outlets
Switched outlets combine a power outlet and switch in one. Devices can be plugged in and controlled with the flick of a switch.
USB Outlets
Rather than clogging your sockets with USB adapters, consider adding a socket with dedicated USB charging ports. This frees up sockets for other devices.
Tamper-Resistant Outlets
If you have small kids around the house, these child-proof outlets are worth considering. They offer more protection than plastic plugs.
Two-Duplex Outlets
If two plugs aren't enough, consider upgrading to a two-duplex socket that offers four plug-in points.
15-Amp Outlets
A 15-amp outlet is the typical home socket. These three-pronged sockets are perfect for areas unlikely to use multiple high-power-drawing devices.
20-Amp Outlets
You can identify 20-amp outlets by the horizontal slit on the socket’s left plug. These provide more power to handle kitchen appliances and power tools.
30-Amp Outlets
30-amp high-powered outlets are usually designated for heavy appliances like water heaters, furnaces, and RVs.
50-Amp Outlets
One of the most powerful sockets installed in residential properties are 50-amp outlets. They are used for appliances like ovens, air conditioners, clothes dryers, and other major appliances.
240-Volt Outlets
240-volt outlets are installed to power your largest appliances and electric vehicles.
